Shooting for Haxstrong T-shirt Catalog

My friend Gregg Haxton is an
overall all-round awesome person. A few years ago he was in a terrible
motorcycle accident and landed up in a coma for two months and losing one of
his eyes. He made a tremendous recovery despite of his physical injuries and partial
brain damage. He fought his way back to health from a condition where many
people would have given up all hope. He is a truly inspiring man.

These days, Gregg still has not
fully recovered from some of the injuries, but has a whole new outlook of life.
He now runs Haxstrong, a charity that helps people who are in need of medical
care both with financial and moral support.

Due to me living in a different
city I'm not able to volunteer with Haxstrong's everyday operations. So I was
delighted when I got a chance to help out by shooting some catalog photos for
the T-shirt range they produce to raise funds. These have been used in flyers
and posters so far but we should be working on the full catalog soon. Some of
the models I work with on a frequent basis and friends were kind enough to
support the shoots by modeling pro bono for the shoots.
